A remedy in frustration

God is there since ages and ages the human memory knowsDistress calls and despondent prayers pulled him alwaysTo cater our needs, Answering some appearing in FormDischarged He the duties towards devotees and believersNo exception it seems even for the God from laws of natureAge it appears catching up even with the God sparing Him notThe ears that could hear from the depths of Oceans and beyondThe eyes that could penetrate anywhere in the entire universeFailing him nowadays as is with any mortals of no consequenceMay be He is in need of a hearing aid and a set of powerful glassesAdvice from whom we should take approach whom for fixing them?

Comments about this poem (A remedy in frustration by Somanathan Iyer )

At times we feel that God is blind and deaf! But the religions teach us that our life on Earth is a fleeting second compared to eternity! So all our pains and hardships endured in good spirits will be rewarded in heaven! Only if we can look beyond this life, we will be able to derive such consolations! Your poem is deep and interesting too, especially the suggestion that God needs a pair of spectacles and hearing aid! But who will bell the cat?
